How to help your child with English

You don’t always need to set aside study time. There are plenty of day-to-day activities that you can pop into your usual routine to support your child!

Here are some ideas to get you started:

Word of the day

Over breakfast or on the school run, introduce a new word to your child to broaden their vocabulary. Your challenge is to both use this word in a sentence throughout the day!

Storytime

Whether it’s getting your child to read aloud a story they’ve written, or settling down with their favourite book, encourage your child to read a chapter a night to you, while you’re making dinner.

Use our English resources

Our members have a wealth of English resources at their fingertips, which cover comprehension, reading and writing. No need to search for the right activities for your child, just log in to get started!
